Skin contact
Ingestion
: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the upper and lower
eyelids. Check for and remove any contact lenses. Get medical attention if irritation
occurs. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes.
: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If it
is suspected that fumes are still present, the rescuer should wear an appropriate mask
or self-contained breathing apparatus. If not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if
respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. It
may be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
Get medical attention if adverse health effects persist or are severe. If unconscious,
place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open
airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
: Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and
shoes. To avoid the risk of static discharges and gas ignition, soak contaminated
clothing thoroughly with water before removing it. Get medical attention if symptoms
occur. In case of contact with liquid, warm frozen tissues slowly with lukewarm water
and get medical attention. Do not rub affected area. Wash clothing before reuse.
Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse.
: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Get
medical attention if adverse health effects persist or are severe. Ingestion of liquid can
cause burns similar to frostbite. If frostbite occurs, get medical attention. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery position
and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing
such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. As this product rapidly becomes a gas when

Appropriate engineering
controls
Environmental exposure
controls
HollyFrontier Refining & Marketing LLC
: Use only with adequate ventilation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation
or other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below
any recommended or statutory limits. The engineering controls also need to keep gas,
vapor or dust concentrations below any lower explosive limits. Use explosion-proof
ventilation equipment.
: Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some
cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will
be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
Individual protection measures
Hygiene measures
Eye/face protection
: Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before
eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period.
Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing.
Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety
showers are close to the workstation location.
: Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk
assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists,
gases or dusts. If contact is possible, the following protection should be worn, unless
the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection: safety glasses with sideshields.
Skin protection
Hand protection
Body protection
Other skin protection
Respiratory protection
: Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be
worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is
necessary. If contact with the liquid is possible, insulated gloves suitable for low
temperatures should be worn. Considering the parameters specified by the glove
manufacturer, check during use that the gloves are still retaining their protective
properties. It should be noted that the time to breakthrough for any glove material may
be different for different glove manufacturers. In the case of mixtures, consisting of
several substances, the protection time of the gloves cannot be accurately estimated.
: Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being
performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before
handling this product. When there is a risk of ignition from static electricity, wear antistatic protective clothing. For the greatest protection from static discharges, clothing
should include anti-static overalls, boots and gloves.
: Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be selected
based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a
specialist before handling this product.
: The gas can cause asphyxiation without warning by replacing the oxygen in the air.
Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved
standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. If operating conditions cause
high gas concentrations to be produced or any recommended or statutory exposure limit
is exceeded, use an air-fed respirator or self-contained breathing apparatus. Respirator
selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the
product and the safe working limits of the selected respirator.
